Abstract:
A boundary-value problem of finding eigenvalues is considered for the negative Laplace operator in a disk with Neumann boundary condition on almost all circle except for a small arc of vanishing length, where the Dirichlet boundary condition is imposed. Complete asymptotic expansions with respect to a parameter (the length of the small arc) are constructed for an eigenvalue of this problem; the eigenvalue converges to a double eigenvalue of the Neumann problem.
Keywords:Laplace operator; singular perturbation; small parameter; eigenvalue; asymptotics.
